The section through Flugplatz to Aremberg in particular looked both fast and composed.

Braking into Pflanzgarten looked horrific, but then it is anyway.

Videos like this are great though, they make it blatantly obvious to me why I'd never be able to drive an 8 minute lap in anything at all, no matter how much faster cars get.
Oh definitely impressive, but in regard to the point of this thread being that just being very fast and impressive is not enough to make something a fun car to drive I thought it was perhaps a good example...
